Timothy Ray Pahl, 67, was found dead at his home on Old Stewartstown Road in Morgantown, West Virginia, after a burglary on April 22, 2018. A retired forester and neighborly presence in his community, Pahl was shot multiple times in the stomach; authorities described his death as a homicide. His body was discovered several days after the shooting, which deeply affected the local community.

Investigators developed several persons of interest and detained four people in Pennsylvania on unrelated charges as the inquiry progressed. The investigation ultimately focused on Elizabeth Ann Chinn, 34, of South Point, Ohio, who was accused of breaking into Pahl’s home and shooting him when confronted. In January 2020 a jury convicted Chinn of first-degree murder, burglary, grand larceny, and two counts of conspiracy. The jury also recommended no mercy, and she was sentenced to life in prison.

Does anyone have information about Pahl’s final days, his home on Old Stewartstown Road, or contacts who might help fill remaining gaps in the timeline?
